Cool Hello from Indiana!

Anyone here from the Southern Indiana area?

Hello, Indianapolis has an RX8 club that is very active. But, they have their own website and don't visit here very much. A group of us from Chicago drove down there, in the spring, to get together for one of their meets at Huber Mazda.

Venomous, alnelisen is right, we are a very active club with our own site and as such we don't check in here as much as we ought to. I hope you check out our site at http://www.indyrx8club.com. Our next event is next weekend, August 9-10, and we will be going to an auto-cross event at a track just south of Columbus, IN. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me here. Hope you can join us!!!

Awesome. Thanks for the invite fellas.

I'm just now getting into the car enthusiast realm, so I don't know as much as I should.

I bought my 8 after test driving it at a dealership. I was blown-away. Now, I want more performance and more knowledge.

Got any sites for noobs like me to visit?

There is no other site that you will get more information, about the RX8, than this site. Start reading. I read for over a month before I even got a login. In the next month, that continued. You could count the number of my posts on one hand.

Check out the RX8Club vendor sites to see what aftermarket accessories are available. Once you get an idea of whats out there, branch out. Perform inet searches for other companies offering parts for the car. Then lastly there is Ebay. Beware on Ebay. There is some good stuff, but there is a lot of junk offered there.

Hello there! Curious where you purchased your 8... Was it at the dealer right across from the bridge to West T (or did you go elsewhere?) In Terre Haute you should about 5 different 8s (mine being one of them). I'm from Sullivan.

GOOD NEWS!

There is an 8 meet in Terre Haute in the plot. Should be sometime in August. Will definately let ya know when. (Will have a thread posted.)

Happy motoring! Hope to see ya 'round the Haute!
